What's Least Likely Of These Scenarios?

[SF Dolphin Fan]

We're inching closer to the season where questions will soon become answers.

Just for fun, what scenario is least likely of the ones posted in the poll?

 

['Deep]

All four

I chose run defense in the top half, I just can't see it. Not with our DT's and Wake is a liability in the run as well. I feel like guards are going to be getting to our LB's pretty easily. I hope our LB's really focus on block shedding.

I voted deep playoff run, but if RT has 35+ TD passes, that means the O is tearing it up. A playoff run becomes possible.

My biggest concern is run defense. Having comfortable leads diminishes this weakness to some extent.

 

[Wise Dinero]

12+ wins, deep playoff run.

Too many questions on this team imo.

1. 1 - I just can’t dream that big. Prove me wrong Dolphins.

2. 4 - Interior of defense and overall LB talent makes this highly unlikely

3. 2 - I think there are too many potential offensive weapons for one guy to achieve this.

4. 3 - If Ryan is healthy, I expect a ton of short and intermediate passes all over the field that allow his playmakers to find the end zone. I think the number is high, but not impossible if it all goes right. I think 30 would be a great number.

5. 5 - This kids work ethic will allow him tons of snaps and This might be the year we see a changing of the guard at DE with Harris towards the end getting a lions share of snaps over Wake and getting those 8 sacks.

If the question was most likely, I would definitely choose the 8 sacks. In fact I see it a a distinct possibility.

12+ wins and deep playoff run just because it hasn't happened since ...

 

[finmann]

12+ wins deep playoff runs, this team is still trying to find an identity.

Individual stats might be good, but there's no way that they'll win 12 games. Under Philbin/Lazor and Gase, their offensive philosophy has resulted in looking unprepared to start every game with a sluggish offense that usually can't score until nearly half-time when they head into the locker room down by 2 or 3 scores. On defense, Coyle, Joseph, and now Burke run a defense built to play with a lead. However, this is idiotic since they're normally behind in every game. And, once they're behind, the opponent can run the ball down their throat due to Miami's inability to stop the run. Opposing offenses can also march right down the field on short passes because Miami's defense can't cover the middle of the field (or tackle). Yes, it's possible that some new additions to the team will help somewhat in this regard, but IMO their ineffective defensive schemes are more to blame than a general lack of talent.

12+ wins and deep playoff run just because it hasn't happened since ...

12 wins since 1990 (12+ wins since 1984).

Deep playoff run since 1992.

I tried using my scientific calculator to calculate the difference in odds between option 1 and option 4, but it rounded down to 0. :eek:

 

[Danny]

I highly doubt Harris gets 8 sacks but I really can't see us winning 12 games so that was my vote

 

[Ray R]

You forgot a category:
None of the above!!!

Least likely is the 12 wins. Regarding Harris I'm hearing all the right things about his off season. I expect a nice jump from him.

Regarding what gofins60 pointed out about our schemes, that's a bummer to think that we are being out schemed or hamstrung by our own poor schemes. 60, can you expand on that? That's something worth talking about imo.
